Hour 4 of Ottawa Now for Fri. August 8th, 2025

Stats Canada has unveiled its job numbers for the month of July, and it’s been awfully tough sledding for Canadian job-seekers. And for the country’s youngest employees, it’s especially harsh. CTV’s Kimberley Fowler digs through the data in Hour 4. Meantime, if you’re craving a short-term escape from the real world, how about a trip to the local cinema? Matt Demers has got you covered with his Weekly Movie Picks! Today’s lineup features a drama-comedy flick, a horror-mystery hit, and a sequel from the 2000’s that features Lindsay Lohan. And finally, if news breaks, you’ll hear it live on CFRA’s Ottawa Now.
